Incoming!! (And a Few Outgoing too!)

Written by Aaron Monteabaro

I guess this guy from Bid Over (Sapphire) had quite the surprise when he made it to the opening ball first - a foot! 

Despite that unique strategy with the toes and all from Midnight Sausage Bandits, Mr. Sapphire shirt came out on top and at the same time gave me a marvelous way to open up this blog posting.  (Thanks!)

How good can you dodge?  Trust me, it's easy to say 'Damn Good, Thank you!' when your standing on the sidelines!  (Actually, I got hit six times that night - once in the face myself!)  But it's a different story when you're out there on the field.  So, let's see how a bit of these folks stand up to the challenge - or bend over or lay down to it.

Here's a mad throw from one very focused Gym Class Evils (Red).  But despite the best attempt (and the attempt was damn good), those ballers from Sorry We're Not Sorry (Royal), look as thought they're ready to counteract just about anything throw at them - literally.

And how about a little bit of the 'Dodge' that makes the 'Dodgeball' what it is?  Here's a shot of some good movin' from  Bad Assets (Daisy).  Maybe it's strategy to have a shirt the same color as the balls??

Here's one back at ya Daisy!  This sausage has a few moves of his own!  (He's the Sweet and Spicy Sicilian - need we say more?)

It's not all about the dodging, though.  Just look here at Ian Ruins Everything (Daisy, but not the same Daisy as above).  He's all set for the perfect catching pose, and he's gonna get what he wants.

And we'll close tonight's Blog-side ceremonies with a shot of Always Picked Last (Royal) and the amazing way he dealt with an incoming shot.  Catch it, yes, but at what cost?  His shoe.  Fret not - he made the catch just fine (and no shoes were harmed in the making of this play).
